At the time of Charlie Kirk's death, he was largely unknown outside of a narrow group of right-wingers and college students (24% name recognition, according to YouGov), so there is little doubt that the number who care about his wife is even smaller. Weiss confuses the GOP info-bubble with America.
I just have trouble believing that the median American is as obsessed with Erika Kirk as Bari Weiss is.

The recent tanker seizure shows they are absolutely capable of interdicting these vessels without any loss of life.

They’re murdering because they want to murder.
The Trump-Vance admin has been committing illegal strike after illegal strike. They're trying to normalize it.

They're counting on you to lose track, to be too overwhelmed to remember the gravity of what they're doing.

But we're keeping track of every single strike.

So far: 22 strikes. 87 killed.

"I only care now because it happened to me. I was all for letting young women die to stick it to the libs until I suffered the consequences of my own actions"
IOWA — “I’m a very pissed off conservative Christian woman. I almost died because I was denied medical care after being diagnosed with a fatal fetus… Cornered by the system… pro life? Choose me. Choose the mother.”

It had to happen to her to get this? #ForcedBirthNation

"Jobs including doctors, nurses and support staff," it says.

They intend to drive up patient wait times to create dissatisfaction with VA, leading veterans to, presumably, call for privatization.

They can't suggest privatization now because veterans love VA. So they intend to turn vets against it.
Exclusive: The Department of Veterans Affairs will abruptly eliminate as many as 35,000 health care positions this month, mostly unfilled jobs.

The cuts come after a massive reorganization effort already resulted in the loss of almost 30,000 employees.
VA plans to abruptly eliminate tens of thousands of health care jobs
Strains on the Veterans Affairs system could grow with the elimination of as many as 35,000 mostly unfilled health care positions, including doctors and nurses.

By next spring, they'll be bragging about the passenger airliner they shot out of the sky because it was filled with "antifa commandos"
This appears to be the 3rd lethal US strike in the Caribbean.

Once again, the specific "terrorist" entity targeted is not identified.

No legal justification is offered for this premeditated killing.

President Trump is asserting a license to kill outside of the law. 1/n

If not for the deployment of the military, this would be the biggest story right now. Or at least it should be...

Gov. Pritzker enlists the public's help: "What we've asked is that people pull out their iPhone or their Android phone and film what they're seeing. Take a video of everything so see so that we can know if, in fact, laws are being broken by these federal officials coming into our state."

A reminder that Trump called Baltimore a 'hellhole' today to no controversy or scandalous headlines.

Imagine a Democratic president calling a red state or red city a hellhole.

Just imagine.

Oh, the double standards.

Pritzker: When did we become a country where it's okay for the president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything, especially something we don't want?

Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.

America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.

Watch and share his message.

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I can’t confirm this but I’m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.
